having a say in getting it done and trying to figure out a way to get it done are 2 different things

very few things our athletic dept does make much sense.

So, you... want them to try to figure out a way to get it done without having a say in getting it done?

Okay.

in talking with ADs around other colleges, yeah thats their job..

promote your school, promote your league, promote your sport.

work with  the other schools, reach out to the games organizers and then reach out to ESPN or streamers and figure it out.

But knowing the school i doubt they even put any thought into it.

they cant force it to be televised, but they can spend some effort to try and get it done.


why do we think we have ticket/concession/venue/parking/streaming/tv/web site issues in athletics..

This is what the Konica-Minolta and Big City Classics circa 2008-2015 wanted to be in Baltimore and Meadowlands (Giants-Jets Stadiumn). Now, we've got an event  with 3 of the top 4 and it's in the heart of the pre-1970 lacrosse ground zero (the Confederacy) rather than today's main hotspot, Ontario stretching southeast through the Finger Lakes to Long Island and New Jersey.

We caught a break against Albany last weekend. Thanks to the idiocy of the NCAA, one of their top scorers had to sit out the game.

Albany, with Nanticoke back, just lost at home to UMass, 14-8. And Albany was owned on faceoffs, winning just 7 of 26. And UMass was owned on faceoffs against Yale by Ierlan ...

Not sure what your point is. I'd be willing to bet anyone on this board that Yale's Ierlan will own us on the faceoff when we play them.

We don't need to bring UMass into the discussion to know that. When you're already at a limit, transitive properties are no longer relevant.

Maybe he's showing that with some experience, coaching and/or a strategy change faceoff stats can be improved.

I don't believe the Nanticoke suspension was catching a break.  When he plays, the ball doesn't move that well - he tends to keep it and go mano a mano.  This makes him susceptible to doubles from his blind side and turnovers.  I suspect our defense prepped for him all week, and when Albany held him out of the game they had to adjust to a modified Albany offensive plan.  That actually worked in Albany's favor. It might be worthwhile for Albany to consider working that "Plan B" offense more early on in games, and then, when the defense tires, unleash Nanticoke's strength and skills on a gassed defense.

at 16-11 our D just stopped making plays, but the time on D adds up, still as someone mentioned.. we had multiple pt blank shots that we got zero goals on and a normal outcome would have been at least 1 probably 2

So does this imply that our depth on D is the problem?

Obviously when the season started we knew that graduation had most seriously affected D & goal and that we needed to get stronger at FOGO. But we did bring in 3 1/2 D men (Adler is listed as D/LSM) and 2 highly rated FOGO's. Maybe if we could win a game or two by a larger margin these guys would get some playing time, and by mid-season we'd start to have more depth. But looking at the schedule, I don't know when this might be.

Even so, given how we've been doing at FOGO, I don't think there'd be much harm in giving more chances to Graham and Rothstein (who, I think, hasn't played at all).

[upprdeck]

I guess we can look at as we have been up 5-6 goals in the 4th which no other team has done,  or we have faltered in the 4th which is not a good thing. the D can only live so long down 1 Min penalties and winning so few faceoffs no matter the depth. if Faceoffs dont get better not sure how much the offense can bail them out.

I was thinking the same thing...but there are also half the teams this year, right?  Cornell men/Florida women in 2019--Duke/Ohio State/Syracuse/North Carolina men's teams in 2018.  I only watched part of the first episode so far and I'm looking forward to seeing the rest and the new episodes.  I wonder how "honest" it will be--will they get any quotes from Coach Milliman about the face-off struggles?

In any case, they'd probably have to edit whatever he says so the show will be fit for family consumption.

I liked it. Kind of a horror story building. You know, the next morning, when they go back to the lover's lane car they fled, there's a giant hook slammed into the car door, with a Maverik glove swinging from the stick. The glove has TD written on in magic marker.
